The following are remarks on entrepreneurship from Lisa. D Cook of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at the 2024 Women for Women Summit in Charleston, South Carolina:

"Today I would like to talk with you about the important role startups, new businesses, and entrepreneurship play in our economy from the perspective of a Federal Reserve policymaker. I also want to share a bit of my story. Just like many of you—including those who have started a business or those who dream of doing that someday—I have faced and overcome hurdles along a winding path."
